NASA GRC Internal Memo: Announcement of Glenn Research Center Role for the Crew Exploration Vehicle Service Module

TO: All Glenn Research Center Civil Service and On-Site Contractor Employees

FROM: A/Director

SUBJECT: Announcement of Glenn Research Center Role for the Crew Exploration Vehicle Service Module

There have been several recent news stories stating that the Glenn Research Center (GRC) will be responsible for managing the service module work package of the Crew Exploration Vehicle prime contract. This information reported in the media was not provided by NASA, and it is unfortunate that it was released before either the Agency or I had a chance to notify you of this development.

This new assignment is just one element of a broader announcement that is to be made in early June. I know that the employees at GRC have lots of questions, and they will be answered as soon as more complete information is known.
